For many years the GOP has advocated things that are supposed to bring the magic of the marketplace and individual incentives to health care: HIGHER deductibles to give people “skin in the game”, COMPETITION among private insurers via EXCHANGES — competition that would include reducing costs by LIMITING networks — and, of course, for cuts in MEDICARE. They REALLY LIKED the rhetoric, without acknowledging the impact of those conditions. Now the GOP complains bitterly that some Obamacare policies have high deductibles, that it relies on the horror of exchanges, that some networks are limited, and that there are cuts in Medicare. So why are they suddenly realizing the problems in the policies that they once ADVOCATED FOR? The hypothesis should be that conservative health-care policies do not exist in any real form. Call it the “Heritage Uncertainty Principle.” The purpose of most health care reform is to help the unfortunate, and here is the thing: the Republicans DONT WANT to help the unfortunate! All of their complaints or proposed alternate ideas are really just diversionary tactics designed to stall health reform. They proposed all of these ideas to forestall reform and CRAP, the damn Democrats went and ADOPTED THEM!! No wonder they are MAD!
